I've decided cran is not the place for it.

We're going to put it on yukon, which is one of the two
linuxkb.org machines. It's a dual PIII/500 xeon with a
gig of ram; it will run the zope webserver on a port other
than 80, and will run apache as normal on 80. Thus
somebodyerother will redirect people going to www.oses.org
to the appropriate port of the zope server on yukon.

This means belegost and cran will do dns for you (does
the mydns.org and mydomain.com that you're using currently
cost money? that looks expensive/bureaucratic.), and I
will host mailing lists and aliases (and mail and developers
accounts) on cran and belegost.

You indicate on your oses.org webpage that you want a
database backend? They're running mysql on vodka, and jason
is willing to create a db for you. He wants a DB name, and
then he'll set it up so you can admin it (create tables,
etc) via web.

ETA is 'about a week' before everything is up and kicking.

O yeah, there will be a few logos you should put somewhere
on your site, since the machine is being hosted by a company,
etc. Look at the www.linuxkb.org/about.html example.
